In a thread now long gone and archived, Major Tom asked what to call ourselves - from tarot collectors to tarot readers to other tarot aficionados.
A number of terms are possible and, quite frankly, have yet to find one that I find personally acceptable.
Of the more 'popular' ones, tarotlogue is perhaps my preferred option - but even this falls far short of something that seems apt. As for 'tarotist', the word just doesn't 'click' for me.
So... any other suggestions?
The most common suggestions (with a couple of additional ones) seem to be:

The most common suggestions (with a couple of additional ones) seem to be:
- tarotist (as in 'artist')
- taroist (ibid)
- tarotor (as in 'doctor')
- taroteur (as in 'amateur')
- tarotlogue (common French ending equivalent to both '-logist' and '-loger')
- tarologer (as in 'astrologer')
- tarotlogist (as in 'archaeologist')
- tarotphile (as in 'bibliophile')
